AKs - push or call the bubble raise?
AKs on party 50+5. No special read on raise.
Q: call or push? I pushed because: 1)I dominate many of his possible hands. 2)Folding equity - he might not go all the way. 3)I am out of position - tougher post flop play. Reason to only call: 1) fourth place sucks - we have same stack size. 2) Pushing might give too much equity to other two players. For those that move-in: Would you only call if you had position?

I'd push even if I had position.

Re: AKs - push or call the bubble raise?
Given the chip stacks and position of the raiser, I think you have a tremendous amount of folding equity plus there is a high likelihood that you are up against a dominated hand. If not, AK is not a bad hand to be all in with [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
He made a questionable call with TT against another big stack, but then again he could have put you on a resteal. I'd play it the same way, and question my decision after I got taken down by a small pair [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] |
